Conduct and Courtesy
Respect for others is a high priority in the life of the school and emphasis is placed upon the positive aspects of conduct and courtesy. Codes for both of these values have been produced through staff and pupil consultation exercises.
The laminated copies are displayed in all classrooms and are referred to on a regular basis. Those pupils who regularly fail to comply with the codes can be given either conduct or courtesy lines to reinforce the desired outcomes.
